WHAT READERS SAY

“If you liked the Chicken Soup series, you will love Fresh Start Moments. Here are 100 true stories that are examples of individuals who experienced an event that catalyzed insight or action or both. I was delighted to read that a percentage of the book sales will go to The Child Welfare League of America. Author Bob Danzig is a product of the foster child system in the U.S. Many fresh start moments for these children.”

“In full disclosure, I am one of the hundred stories in this book, so likely have a bias. I want to commend this as a favorite book for the holidays and beyond. It is rich, varied, and inspiring. There could not be a better range of fresh start stories. Written about 100 subjects, each with a different voice, there are lessons for each of us, regardless of whether we are in need of a fresh start or not. For yourself, or for a loved one. I probably should make a second disclosure that Bob Danzig, the person who compiled this marvelous work is a friend. We met by chance five years ago (though I have considerable doubt that the people we meet are by chance). FRESH START MOMENTS is a gift and I have already ordered several copies as gifts.”
